My '98 C70 had the chronic symptoms of a failing ABS module. The ABS and Tracs light were coming on often with no rhyme or reason.

I had BBA Remanufacturing in South Dartmouth, MA rebuild the module. They emailed me a prepaid UPS shipping label, I dropped it in the nearest UPS dropbox, they rebuilt it and shipped it the same day that they received it. I reinstalled the module in 10-15 minutes and the lights are gone!

Total cost - $90 including shipping both ways. Lifetime warranty.

Hey Otto
Was your TRACS OFF light coming on as well? That's the problem Im having, and I wonder if I need a new module as well.

Yes, my symptoms were the chronic ABS & Tracs Off lights coming on simultaneously at random times.

But since my module was rebuilt..............no more lights!!!!

Yeah I've contact that site you linked. Hopefully they'll respond to my email tomorrow.

What caused this problem, do you know? Mine just started out of nowhere. Could it mean that I have failure of my ABS?

I've heard that some soldered connections in the module begin to fail and that is when the lights begin coming on intermittently. I've also heard that some electrical components on the module circuit board fail. I don't really know what caused my problem..............I'm just happy that it's fixed. :clap: :clap:
